Can CR2032 batteries drain over time even when not in use?

If the batteries are just lying there does the charge go out of them after a few months/years? My brand new digital scale isn’t turning on and I’m thinking that it’s the batteries but they seem to have never been used they’re just old.
CR2032 batteries are the flat circle ones in case someone doesn’t wanna google the name.
